Additives sodium sulfate

Using a Pasteur or filter-tip pipet, transfer the organic phase to a test tube or vial with a 15-mL capacity. Extract the aqueous layer sequentially with three 2-mL portions of diethyl ether, combining the organic layers with the original ethereal extract. Combine all of the ethereal solutions in an Erlenmeyer flask, and add several microspatula-tips full of anhydrous sodium sulfate, swirling the mixture occasionally over a period of about 15 min if the solution appears cloudy, add additional sodium sulfate with swirling. 

Equation V-64 is that of a parabola, and electrocapillary curves are indeed approximately parabolic in shape. Because E ax tmd 7 max very nearly the same for certain electrolytes, such as sodium sulfate and sodium carbonate, it is generally assumed that specific adsorption effects are absent, and Emax is taken as a constant (-0.480 V) characteristic of the mercury-water interface. For most other electrolytes there is a shift in the maximum voltage, and is then taken to be Emax 0.480. Some values for the quantities are given in Table V-5 [113]. Much information of this type is due to Gouy [125], although additional results are to be found in most of the other references cited in this section. 

In a typical experiment 105 mg (0.50 mmol) of 3.8c, dissolved in a minimal amount of ethanol, and 100 mg (1.50 mmol) of 3.9 were added to a solution of 1.21g (5 mmol) of Cu(N03)2 BH20 and 5 mmol of ligand in 500 ml of water in a 500 ml flask. -Amino-acid containing solutions required addition of one equivalent of sodium hydroxide. When necessary, the pH was adjusted to a value of 5 ( -amino acids) and 7.5 (amines). The flask was sealed carefully and the solution was stirred for 2A hours, followed by extraction with ether. After drying over sodium sulfate the ether was evaporated. Tire endo-exo ratios were determined from the H-NMR spectra of the product mixtures as described in Chapter 2. 

In addition, there are other methods of manufacture of cryoHte from low fluorine value sources, eg, the effluent gases from phosphate plants or from low grade fluorspar. In the former case, making use of the fluorosiHcic acid, the siHca is separated by precipitation with ammonia, and the ammonium fluoride solution is added to a solution of sodium sulfate and aluminum sulfate at 60—90°C to precipitate cryoHte (26,27) ... 

Coa.cerva.tlon, A phenomenon associated with coUoids wherein dispersed particles separate from solution to form a second Hquid phase is termed coacervation. Gelatin solutions form coacervates with the addition of salt such as sodium sulfate [7757-82-6] especially at pH below the isoionic point. In addition, gelatin solutions coacervate with solutions of oppositely charged polymers or macromolecules such as acacia. This property is useful for microencapsulation and photographic apphcations (56—61). 

After sulfuric acid work-up (accompanied by the formation of sodium sulfate), the resorcinol is extracted and isolated in a 94% yield based on y -benzenedisulfonic acid [98-48-6]. In addition to the technical complexity that goes along with the manipulation of soHds at high temperature, this process produces large amounts of salts (sulfite and sulfate salts) which economically as well as environmentally are not always desired. 

Naphthalenediol. This diol is prepared by the alkah fusion of 2-hydroxynaphthalene-6-sulfonic acid (Schaffer acid) at 290—295°C. Schaffer acid is usually produced by sulfonation of 2-naphthol with the addition of sodium sulfate at 85—105°C. This acid is also used as a coupling component in the production of a2o dyes such as Acid Black 26. 2,6-Naphthalenediol is used as a component in the manufacture of aromatic polyesters which, as is also tme of the corresponding amides, display Hquid crystal characteristics (52). 

Sodium alum occurs naturally as the mineral mendo2ite. Commercially, it is produced by the addition of a sodium sulfate solution to aluminum sulfate. Small amounts of potassium sulfate, sodium siUcate, and soda ash can be added to improve product handling and performance. After adjustment of the ratio of aluminum sulfate to sodium sulfate, water is evaporated to give a hard cake ia the cooling pans. This cake is further heated ia roasters and ground to a fineness of 99% through a 100-mesh (- 150 fiva) sieve. 

Physical and chemical properties of the three most important forms of sodium sulfate are summarized ia Table 3. The solubiUty of sodium sulfate ia water from 0 to 360°C is shown ia Figure 1 (5). The solubiUty of the NaClNa2S04-H2 0-saturated system is also shown. The aqueous solubiUty of sodium sulfate changes rapidly from 0 to 40°C, and addition of NaCl to a saturated solution of Na2S04 dramatically suppresses this solubiUty. These two effects are exploited by all manufacturers of sodium sulfate. 

Sodium dithionite is considered only moderately toxic. The solution is reported to have an LD q (rat, oral) of about 5 g/kg. As with sulfites, fairly large doses of sodium dithionite can probably be tolerated because oxidation to sulfate occurs. However, irritation of the stomach by the Hberated sulfurous acid is expected. As a food additive, sodium dithionite is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) (367). 

MeutralSoluble Salts. So dium sulfate [7757-82-6] and, to a considerably lesser extent, sodium chloride [7647-14-5] are the principal neutral soluble salts used in laundering compositions. They are often considered to be fillers although they perform an important standardizing function enabling the formulator to manufacture powders of a desired, controlled density. Sodium sulfate, in addition, lowers the critical micelle concentration of organic surfactants and thus the concentration at which effective washing can be achieved. 

In the first case (22), almost stoichiometric amounts of sulfuric acid or chlorosulfonic acid are used. The amine sulfate or the amine chlorosulfate is, first, formed and heated to about 180 or 130°C, respectively, to rearrange the salt. The introduction of the sulfonic acid group occurs only in the ortho position, and an almost quantitative amount of l-aminoanthraquinone-2-sulfonic acid is obtained. On the other hand, the use of oleum (23) requires a large excess of SO to complete the reaction, and inevitably produces over-sulfonated compound such as l-amino-anthraquinone-2,4-disulfonic acid. Addition of sodium sulfate reduces the byproduct to a certain extent. Improved processes have been proposed to make the isolation of the intermediate (19) uimecessary (24,25). 

Purification. Enzyme purity, expressed in terms of the percent active enzyme protein of total protein, is primarily achieved by the strain selection and fermentation method. In some cases, however, removal of nonactive protein by purification is necessary. The key purification method is selective precipitation of the product or impurities by addition of salt, eg, sodium sulfate, or solvent, eg, ethanol or acetone by heat denaturation or by isoelectric precipitation, ie, pH adjustments. Methods have been introduced to produce crystalline enzyme preparations (24). 

BF3 Et20, EtSH, 25°, 40 min, 80-90% yield. Addition of sodium sulfate prevents hydrolysis of a dithioacetal group present in the compound replacement of ethanethiol with ethanedithiol prevents cleavage of a dithiolane group. 

The flask is placed in an ice-salt mixture and the contents decomposed by the gradual addition of 300 cc. of saturated ammonium chloride solution and 100 cc. of water (Note 4). The aqueous layer is removed by means of a 1500-cc. separatory funnel and sufficient ether is added to dissolve the yellow precipitate. The total volume of ether solution is about one liter. This is washed with two 200-cc. portions of water, and the three aqueous layers are extracted consecutively with a loo-cc. portion of ether. The combined ether solution is dried over 30 g. of anhydrous sodium sulfate, coricentrated on the steam bath to a volume of about 200 cc., and cooled to room temperature. The product which crystallizes is collected with suction and washed with two 25-cc. portions of ether. The yield is 35-38 g. of light yellow product, m.p. 122-123°. The ether is completely removed from the combined filtrates by heating on the steam bath, and the black oil is allowed to stand overnight. The semi-solid mass is filtered with suction and washed with a minimum amount of cold ether. In this way an additional 6-7 g. of yellow material is obtained which melts at 119-121°. 

A solution of 10.0 g. (0.25 mole) of sodium hydroxide in 250 ml. of water is prepared in a 1-1. round-bottomed flask equipped with a reflux condenser and a mechanical stirrer. Twenty-five grams (0.065 mole) of N,N-dimethylaminomethylferrocene methiodide is added to the solution. The resulting suspension is heated to reflux temperature with stirring. At this point the solid is in solution. Within 5 minutes oil starts to separate from the solution and trimethylamine starts to come off. At the end of 3.5 hours, at which time the evolution of the amine has virtually ceased, the reaction mixture is allowed to cool to room temperature. The oil generally crystallizes during the cooling. The mixture is stirred with 150 ml. of ether until the oil or solid is all dissolved in the ether. The ether layer is separated in a separatory funnel and the aqueous layer is extracted with two additional 150-ml. portions of ether. The combined ether extracts are washed once with water and dried over sodium sulfate. 

Permanent hardness can also be due to the presence of CaS04, in which case the addition of soda (sodium carbonate), NaiC03, produces sodium sulfate, Na2S04, and calcium carbonate, CaCO, this precipitate once again is removed by sedimentation. 

Estrone methyl ether (100 g, 0.35 mole) is mixed with 100 ml of absolute ethanol, 100 ml of benzene and 200 ml of triethyl orthoformate. Concentrated sulfuric acid (1.55 ml) is added and the mixture is stirred at room temperature for 2 hr. The mixture is then made alkaline by the addition of excess tetra-methylguanidine (ca. 4 ml) and the organic solvents are removed. The residue is dissolved in heptane and the solution is filtered through Celite to prevent emulsions in the following extraction. The solution is then washed threetimes with 500 ml of 10 % sodium hydroxide solution in methanol to remove excess triethyl orthoformate, which would interfere with the Birch reduction solvent system. The heptane solution is dried over sodium sulfate and the solvent is removed. The residue is satisfactory for the Birch reduction step. Infrared analysis shows that the material contains 1.3-1.5% of estrone methyl ether. The pure ketal may be obtained by crystallization from anhydrous ethanol, mp 99-100°. Acidification of the methanolic sodium hydroxide washes affords 10-12 g of recovered estrone methyl ether. 

A mixture of 6/l-chloroandrost-4-ene-3/ ,17/l-diol dibenzoate (223 1.5 g) and lithium aluminum deuteride (0.5 g) in anhydrous ether (75 ml) is heated under reflux for 2 hr and then stirred overnight at room temperature. The excess hydride is decomposed by the careful addition of saturated sodium sulfate solution, and the inorganic salts are removed by filtration and washed with... 

Androst-4-ene-3,17-dione. Testosterone (0.58 g, 2 mmoles) is dissolved in a solution prepared from 3 ml of benzene, 3 ml of dimethyl sulfoxide, 0.16 ml (2 mmoles) of pyridine and 0.08 ml (1 mmole) of trifluoroacetic acid. After addition of 1.24 g (6 mmoles) of dicyclohexylcarbodiimide, the sealed reaction flask is kept overnight at room temperature. Ether (50 ml) is added followed by a solution of 0.54 g (6 mmoles) of oxalic acid in 5 ml of methanol. After gas evolution has ceased ( 30 min) 50 ml of water is added and the insoluble dicyclohexylurea is removed by filtration. The organic phase is then extracted twice with 5 % sodium bicarbonate and once with water, dried over sodium sulfate and evaporated to a crystalline residue (0.80 g) which still contains a little dicyclohexylurea. Direct crystallization from 5 ml of ethanol gives androst-4-ene-3,17-dione (0.53 g, 92%) in two crops, mp 169-170°. 

Acetylene is passed for 1 hr through a mixture consisting of 0.5 g (72 mg-atoms) of lithium in 100 ml of ethylene-diamine. A solution prepared from 1 g (3.5 mmoles) of rac-3-methoxy-18-methylestra-l,3,5(10)-trien-I7-one and 30 ml of tetrahydrofuran is then added at room temperature with stirring over a period of 30 min. After an additional 2 hr during which time acetylene is passed through the solution the mixture is neutralized with 5 g of ammonium chloride, diluted with 50 ml water, and extracted with ether. The ether extracts are washed successively with 10% sulfuric acid, saturated sodium hydrogen carbonate and water. The extract is dried over sodium sulfate and concentrated to yield a solid crystalline material, which on recrystallization from methanol affords 0.95 g (87%) of rac-3-methoxy-18-methyl-17a-ethynyl-estra-l,3,5(10)-trien-17jB-ol as colorless needles mp 161°.
